Thriller ideas from news articles





This news article is about a man who died after being found lying in the road 90 minutes after a woman was murdered one street away. They both knew each other.
I could turn this into a thriller as there could be a serial killer who, by killing a person, someone the murderer knew would also die. It could begin with someone distant, but as the murderer kills more and more people, his friends and family could start to die.






From this article, I have thought that my thriller could be about a father and teenage daughter who have a close relationship, but her mother is dead. The daughter could be unaware that her father is a serial killer and is in fact the person who killed her mother. The thriller could show him killing different people and show his daughter’s gradual realisation of the truth.






This article has inspired me to think about creating my thriller about a kidnapper who continues to frame a woman she hates for her own kidnappings of people connected in some way to the woman she is blaming. The thriller could show everyone believing that she is guilty, although she promises of her innocence.
